Jered Weaver used to dominate the Sox, but now it’s Tony Pena who has the upper hand. For the second time this season, Pena earned the “W” while Weaver took the loss. And this time, Pena filled in for an injured starter from the get-go. The Angels got to Pena early, but the Sox got [...]
September 24: White Sox 2, Angels 1
Facing a lineup with four rookies and a bust of a prospect, Freddy Garcia enjoyed the equivalent of a rehab start. Although he still sought his 12th win by the end of it, he passed the test. Garcia threw six innings of one-run ball, allowing one run on four hits and two walks, and pitching [...]
September 10: White Sox 4, Royals 3
For seven and a half innings, it looked like Mark Buehrle would be undone by his adversaries — Joe West and Willie Bloomquist. Instead, the Royals were undermined by their nemesis — their own defense. Subdued by Bruce Chen, the Sox rallied for three runs off Robinson Tejeda in the bottom of the eighth to [...]
Sept. 1: White Sox 6, Indians 4
For the second straight game, Manny Ramirez had the best view of a teammate hitting a game-winning three-run homer. On Tuesday, it was A.J. Pierzynski. Today, it was Paul Konerko. The Sox, who were sluggish all day off rookie Carlos Carrasco and sloppy on defense, too, exploded for four runs in the eighth inning en [...]
August 19: White Sox 11, Twins 0
The Sox greeted Carl Pavano with two base hits. They’d have 19 more before the night was over. Led by Paul Konerko’s 5-for-5 night, the Sox shrugged off a couple of crushing one-run victories by crushing Pavano. The last time Pavano faced the Sox, he outdueled Mark Buehrle in a pair of complete games. Buehrle [...]
August 8: Orioles 4, White Sox 3
The White Sox couldn’t hit an Oriole starter for the third straight night. This time, it was Jeremy Guthrie holding the Sox to one run over eight innings as Baltimore pulled off another one-run victory. Guthrie kept the Sox bats in check all night. Only one leadoff hitter reached, and Mark Kotsay was stranded at [...]
August 3: Tigers 7, White Sox 1 (Game 2)
This game very closely resembled Daniel Hudson’s final start in a White Sox uniform. It had an uncomfortable starter who eventually settled down and a pitcher who committed a throwing error to put the game out of reach. All it was missing was the White Sox rally that made it interesting. Carlos Torres made his [...]
July 28: White Sox 6, Mariners 5
Power brought the White Sox back, and power closed this game out. As a result, the White Sox won their third straight game, and one they probably shouldn’t have been in considering the way it started. Seattle scored all five of its runs over the first two innings. Mark Buehrle had some bad luck (Franklin [...]
July 21: Mariners 2, White Sox 1 (11 innings)
This one hurts. The White Sox and Gavin Floyd outlasted a dominant Felix Hernandez, getting a scoreless game into extra innings. They did so by using only Sergio Santos and Erick Threets in high-leverage situations. They did so by getting terrific defense and horrific baserunning from the Mariners. They finally got on the board with [...]
July 19: White Sox 6, Mariners 1
Tonight proved to be quite the palate-cleanser for Daniel Hudson, Alex Rios and the rest of the White Sox, brushing themselves off after the debacle in Minnesota for a convincing victory to open up a West Coast swing. Rios drove in three runs, tying the game with a sac fly after Hudson fell into a [...]
